Description: | Cast copper alloy fragment of a hanging skillet. The fragment consists of part of the body and rim of the skillet and the flat lug above the rim with a drilled circular hole (diameter = 8 mm) as a 'rod and swivel attachment' for the rod handle to loop through. The lug is integral to the rim and the rim is flat and everted in order to take the base of the lug. There are many parallel turning marks running horizontally along the exterior of the body.
Butler & Green (2003) illustrate another example of a hanging skillet, with similar flat lugs, on page 68, No.45, which is attributed to Edmund Giles of Lewes, Sussex, and dated to c.1592-1614. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Tyacke, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
